DRAMIŃSKI iScan mini – user guide
15. Operational and technical notes
It is necessary to shave fur and use ultrasound gel in order to carry out abdominal examination. Proper layer
of the gel will denitely improve penetration of the ultrasound beam and will enable obtaining proper and
legible images.
During and after the examination, protect the head of the probe and the cable against mechanical damage.
Remember:
1. To arrange the cable of the probe properly. Improper placing or excessive bending of the cable can cause
damage to the wire.
2. To put the probe in the case properly. To avoid squeezing the cable with the cover of the case, as it may
cut the wire.
3. To store the probe properly and safely.
Attention! If the storage temperature happens to fall below 5°C, it is necessary to warm the probe up
before turning on the device. Using the ultrasound scanner in extreme temperatures alternatively is
unfavourable and can lead to damages.
